What their label says...
Violet Violet (Cheri Violet, vocals and guitars and Violet Fliss, vocals and drums) return with 'The City Is Full Of Beasts' - the keenly anticipated follow-up to their debut album 'Bitchbox'. Formed in 2006 Violet Violet are no strangers to the media jungle, gaining repeat rave reviews from Artrocker and NME, and branded one of Steve Lamacq's 'New Favourite Bands' while snatching Single of the Week on his 6Music show. Violet Violet's
trademark stop-start dynamics, see-sawing needling riffs, thunderous and inventive drumming, jagged guitar and pitch-perfect harmonizing are all here. But this album marks a transition - closer to rock than riot grrrl - the same edgy, devastating dual-pronged raw vocal attack, but now working in harmony with a guitar, polyphonic octave generator and drums. Norwich's gossip-rocking gals are still sonically strident and lyrically revealing, but the rejuvenated pair of lionesses here are leaner and more efficient, with a crooked brittleness like 'Dress'-era PJ Harvey embellished by elements of the Slits, Au Pairs and Delta 5.
"Thrilling guitar pop Violet Violet sum up the real energy of the DIY movement at present" - Steve Lamacq, In New Music We Trust "Will have you coming away from their gigs with the feeling you've seen something quite special..." NME
